A&C kitchen is one of those old-timey 'cheap American-chinese places' that aren't that cheap anymore, and find themselves in a strange cultural place right now. I walked in the heat of the July summer in NYC to get the food.
For two entrees I paid $42 including tips. The food was not worth it. I got egg foo yong. I very much wanted to like the food. It was disappointing. I paid $20 for the goddamn item, it didn't feel like it. Didn't even feel like a $15 item each. It was awful. What a waste of money. And my friend Sk, who was starving, had three spoonfuls of his chowmein (maybe he got the wrong order, but his food didn't look like chowmein) before trashing it. It was yuck.
I give it 3/10 stars. It is technically food that will help stay you alive. It's not the worst item in the world. For how crap it is, the food is extremely overpriced. Maybe we got accidentally overcharged? If it had been 25, I'd been singing praises about it. Regardless, if this is how people are getting charged, I don't know how they will stay in business. They should really redo their whole vibe. It was so goddamn bad. For that much money I'd just have gone to domino's or even trader joe's and reheated their frozen foods and fed us for three days.
Yuck, yuck, yuck. Do better, people!
